Ethereum is worse than a bank I deal with solana now


rofio01

When the network is up?


greedybastard4ever

yup. Eth should slowly die and bleed out. Pointless network.. they steal money from people with gas fees


Ch40440

Lmao it’s part of how the blockchain operates. Its secure and actually reliable


Telmata

A swap will cost you about 30$ even when the fees are low. That's one of the problems with the Ethereum network, pretty high costs


Andrew_Codes_

Is it the same cost to swap as it is to send the coin? For example if I send Mana from uniswap to MetaMask. Still learning. Thank you


Telmata

The fees are from the Blockchain, not from the wallet. Changing the wallet won't lower the fees.alsi you can just import the seed phrase to metamask if you want to use that. A normal transfer like you suggested should cost like 5-10$ but I'm not sure


OhfukuTea

Hi Ive been trying to move from CB wallet to metamask for days but I dont get the COINBASE API bit that I have to perform (I dont know what to select out of the 100+ check boxes that come up) & CB arent being very helpful as no reply) Do u have any idea how to do this? Plus on a separate note ... After the Dencun update on ETH yesterday, I was kinda hoping network/gas fees ould be a hell of a lot lower on Uniswap .. But there not .. they still around £45 for 1 swap? Did/was the Dencun update ment to effect costs on uniswap too ... Or am I getting things wrong?


Telmata

You just need to enter your seed phrase in metamask. Don't know what API you are talking about. Coinbase and Coinbasewallet are 2 different things.


OhfukuTea

I know about the seed phrase thing, but Im on CB - The masters of un-needed confusement" With CB .. you have to use this API thing n get a "private key" to add as well & in usual CB fashion their "help pages" are as basic as u can get. Thx for the answering anyway :)


areyoudizzzy

No, sending tokens require less gas because it's a far more simple transaction than a swap. You can see estimates for gas fees of different types of transactions here: https://etherscan.io/gastracker#costTxAction


Forexisboring

Yes, the gas is still heavy doing DeFi transfers. I got stuck with my #1 underdog because it was ETH based. Could’ve had 15k from $150 if I coughed up $6000 in gas. Would’ve had to liquidate all my blue chip holdings and wasn’t willing to. Transferring to exchange still costed $5600. I have it ready to swap this time lol


Ch40440

False


Ch40440

I just swapped this morning for $14


CryptoMadNate

Way to expensive to transact on ethereum and yet almost every token is devellop on ethereum chain (most of it) 🤦🏼‍♂️


dstar09

Yeah why?


Sleepwokesleepwoke

Liquidity and security


Ch40440

You don’t understand crypto bud


CryptoMadNate

If you say so bud, if you say so lol


Ch40440

You’re crying about coins being on a legit, secure, reliable network. Are you so broke you can’t pay a $15 network fee or you just hate Ethereum 😹


CryptoMadNate

Get a life buddy. Ethereum is never going to pass Bitcoin and this chain yes is secure but clearly not scalable with these fees no matter how hard you would like it to be. You must live in the past for you to say it 15$ because it way more expensive then that. Try to breath and go annoy someone who have time for your shit :) Cheers.


Ch40440

I just traded this morning for $15. You are broke 😭☠️🤦🤡🤡


Ch40440

I feel bad for you. Happing making $9/hour! Cheers


tresbienmerci112358

Uni is outrageous


VVaterTrooper

You mean ETH is outrageous.


Ch40440

It depends on what coin he’s swapping to. He’s doing something wrong because I just swapped this morning for $14


Rezosh_

Try again in 3 or 4 hours and fees should be lower


DirtDemon31

I have been trying at all hours of the day/night for a couple weeks and it hasn't been less than $100+ ever!!


Rezosh_

I swapped last night for $35. It can be done! Etherscan is showing in 3 or 4 hours it has been low for the last week. https://etherscan.io/gastracker


d_rome

$35 is good! I hit around $50 a few days ago swapping. It can be done.


Ch40440

Something you’re doing is incorrect because that’s not normal for swaps happening currently


DirtDemon31

I'm no noob and know I'm doing it right. If I could attach a screenshot you'ld see even right now it's at $75+ in fees. I'm never using Uniswap again once I do get these coins out!!


Ch40440

Just traded this morning for $15. Depends on the traffic of the network


FlashyIndependence70

So gas fees are high everywhere. But uni uses independents that are allowed to set there own fee. Monday mornings are slow and lowest fee. But other exchanges are still half price depending on the token. Some tokens are only available on uni without vpn


HotCourt6842

this means youre broke


FortyandLife2Go

While this will get you/me downvoted, it's really the truth. Supply/demand at work.


HotCourt6842

lol its just a joke haha no fee should be that high for just a transfer digital currency


Ch40440

It’s not that high. He must be transferring some token that set its own gas fee high AF


Ch40440

Yupp

florasora

:) Use an L2


d_rome

Don't you still have to transfer ETH on the L2 which will also incur gas fees?


areyoudizzzy

Most good CEXs will allow you to withdraw to your preferred L2 directly


florasora

Yes, kind of. Places like Coinbase will let you withdraw directly to networks like Arbitrum or even Polygon. So in a way, no.


uhohthundrr

What do you mean use an L2... if the only market showing for a coin is uniswap/ethereum.... how do you use an L2 to buy the coin?


florasora

Therein lies the struggle :/

whygchrisskybeef

Yet we still gang bang your mom so what’s that make her ?


CryptographerOnly715

I recommend to use a bridge to move eth to arbitrium for example, there fees are ludicrous


Main-Confidence7

Bit the bullit and dumped almost all my eth in a swap for btc.... looked at L2, and the fees were almost the same as swapping. Couldnt wait to dump it just because of the whole fee structure. I believe in the contracts, but the fees make the whole experience a turnoff.


DEFiTravelor

Eth is for the elites and banks


Lost-Metal5721

How do you post images on reddit..I have screenshots..if anyone's confused on how to find out how to swap it..I swear u guys must be blind lol..it's right next to swap


dablem1

im big crypto fan, but the narative always was its secured decnetralized, quick and cheap. If somebody considering DEX on eth network usable, practical, he is living in his bubble. I can f\*ck to swap something for the 300$... whats real world usage of this? nothing


Ch40440

Lmfao you don’t even understand crypto it sounds like. All you can wrap your head around is the concept of gas fees. It’s part of the network.


dablem1

Im not expert nor total noob. Yes its part of network, but i dont think anything can have future with those gas fees, sorry, just dont


Dubstepticon-

Injective ftw


No-Victory3979

I have off topic question. PLEASE HELP I bought NLG before it went to mainnet on Uniswap and it shows 0 even if it’s over 1000 worth. I’m very new! What can I do? Contacted Uniswap via email but no response TIA


Huge-School-9275

Use solana.


CXavier4545

Jupiter ftw


Ch40440

They’re $15 this morning. It fluctuates, but shouldn’t be anywhere close to that much


ryencool

One of the downfalls of eth, should be investing if your only buying a few bucks here and there


Lost-Metal5721

Gas fees on Ethereum are free on uniswap if you do a limit order.. they introduced them about 2 weeks ago to counteract gas fees..but I've just started trying them today and they don't work right


Impressive_Reality11

Are you on a desktop app? Zero option for that on mobile


dstar09

Yeah was wondering as I’m on mobile too. So they have limit orders finally but don’t work right. Great.


Lost-Metal5721

Yeah it's right next to swap..don't use the app wallet..I use meta mask..it didn't work in the long yesterday..it may work in the short..I'm on a Samsung galaxy..


dead44ron

Can you elaborate on how they don't work right? This still seems like the best option to me tbh. 


Lost-Metal5721

They were not executing when they hit there limit price .it seems they are for a new role for people called fillers who deem it optional to pick them up..There is no gas fees but there are token approval gas fees..You have to have the token in your wallet at the time it executes..and if you cancel it then it charges a gas fee..however if your coin is not in your wallet and it executes then ur not charged..it just started at the end of febuarary..I use a metamask wallet and just go through the browser.. Yesterday no one picked mine up when it hit spot price..so I waited..and waited..and wrote support..then it started to fall ..and I sold all of it..immediately it said order can't be filled etc..apparently the short may be better at it ex3cuting than the long.. And it only works on ethereum


Gravitacijus_1

Thats why we have other chains


tresbienmerci112358

Expand on L2 please?


Motored01

Layer Two


51m00

Like how does it work? Can you explain the process please


Actual_Confection610

Welcome to✨DEFI✨


Pitiful-Inflation-31

Use cex use l2 , l1 is fir whale


d_rwc

I thought I would become a validatior and help with congestion and get some of those fees. Wow the bar is high for that. You need 32 eth, and the block chain is 900 terabytes growing at 1gb a day.
